Counteracting Gravity News Today

Enough lift, causing the plane ç to lose altitude. >> if the wings are level then 100% of the lift is counteracting gravity. when you have a 45-degree angle of bank, then only half of it can be counteracting the lift. so the greater the bank angle the less available lift there is to counteract gravity, which makes it harder to maintain altitude. >> something was changing too rapidly for the radar data to keep up with it. from 9,000 feet i saw one more hit at 1,000 feet. now thats bad. thats rea...

Counteracting gravity. when you have a 45 degree angle at bank then only half of it can counteracting the lift. so the greater the bank angle the less available lift there is to counteract gravity, which makes it harder to maintain altitude. >> something was changing too rapidly for the radar data to keep up with. from 9,000 feet i saw one more hit at 1,000 feet. now thats bad. thats real bad. thats a rate of descent like a fighter jet. thats 8,000 feet a minute, which is screaming down. >> when...
